Description
Rifle with flint lock, full stock of curly maple, brass mountings, octagonal barrel 44 inches long marked I (or J) Ferree on the top facet of the barrel. This rifle is one of the few examples known in the Pittsburgh area that was made there in the eighteenth century. Although it was probably made by Jacob Ferree, there is little in its style that suggests his earlier residence in Lancaster County.
